Dog Pile On The Rabbit... Bullshit

[Gringo]

I think I see his point, though. Sometimes it seems like parts of SFC have turned into one of those bars you might wander into in a strange town, only to find out that it's the local hangout for a clique of drunken frat boys always looking for someone to pick a fight with so they can cheer each other on.

Some days you might welcome a little challenge just to show them how an ass is properly kicked, but most times you just say screw it and go to another place without the drama and macho bullshit.

Bingo Gringo!
You're seeing the direction I was tryingto point out. Hell this goes back all the way to my high school days. We had a school that served two towns. One very affluent and one middle class... Gangs sprang up... The gangs didn't fight each other though. They picked on singles that strayed into their "turf". It was sickening to watch a half dozen guys work over one loner.
I have been seeing some of that here. This site was never meant to have that and for so long, we didn't... Individuals taking potshots at others is ugly. Makes entire threads or for that matter the whole site unpleasant to read. The newer trend of groups of guys dedicating a lot of energy into mob mentality is really making things tough for those that want to come to this site to learn or share.
I see posts asking questions go ignored. Then I see multi page blow ups that serve no purpose flourish. Thats not the site this place was, should or could be...

I think most folks have figured out to go to their local area Forums to ask or share fishing information, at least that's where I direct those that pm me. It's a little harder to bash I guy you're going to see out fishing or in the local bar. I find that in my local New England Forum anyway. The rest come here Mix It Up, that's what is designed for I guess, and that's where the most hits occur, so everyone is "served" I guess......I don't take anything personal, I get a kick out of it........

Hell, I can't figure you where to post my fishing q's anymore. I guess I can take the time to figure it out, but I don't spend my leisure time working too hard at figuring stuff out.

Salt water, fresh water, engine maintenance, electronics, world wide fishing, local fishing, flats fishing, bass fishing, etc.... fishing is fishing. would it really be TOO CROWDED if all fishing was posted in ONE forum!!!

But hey, if I wanted to run a site, I should have developed a site myself, instead I'm no better than anyone else and ***** about something I get for free...

I'm such a loser sometimes..

Someone far from harbor you may guide across the bar;
Brighten the corner where you are!
